That is a real shame. His books are excellent resources.

Re: Joel Whitburn, R.I.P.
Very sad to hear this news. Being a chart geek, I have all the Hot 100 books, Top Pop Singles, Top Pop Albums and Pop Hits:1940-54. Most of my purchases from Record Research have arrived between 7-10 days of placing my order, and are always well packed. At recordresearch.com, in the "About Joel" section, there is a very impressive 34 minute video tour of his record collection vault.
